Vocal Chord update


Thank you for all of your prayers! Ashlyn's last bronchoscopy showed that her left vocal chords are working! They are still sluggish, but there has been a huge improvement in their movement and we have been officially discharged from ENT (ear, nose, throat). She is also feeding very well and has decided to eat like a normal baby. She cries when she is hungry and eats as much or as little as she wants. This may seem trivial, but to us it is a huge milestone. No more fighting and screaming when it comes to eating time. She is still suffering from reflux. I tried weaning her off the medication, but she started vomitting frequently...so we are back up to full strength Ranitidine. That is our next prayer request.
